Filled with clips that didn't exactly make the cut for Fantasia (1940), Melody Time is another 1940's Disney film, "packaged" to help the company continue to bring in the cash to keep the lights on in the midst of World War II.
With interesting characters like Pecos Bill, Johnny Appleseed, and Donald Duck, this movie definitely keeps it interesting....but interesting enough to consider it an underrated classic?
